Fashion Lover's Guide To Shopping In Tel Aviv

Despite the many crowded shopping malls Tel Aviv has to offer, street shopping is very much alive. The most popular and trendiest stores are located in the heart of Tel Aviv on Sheinkin and Dizengoff Street. You can also walk by inexpensive stores on Allenby and King George Street, where you can bargain to get an outfit for as little as 100 shekel ($25). If you’re more into high-end fashion, take a stroll in Neve Tsedek or Kikar Hamedina, where you can find local and international brands. For new styles, take a look at these seven boutiques scattered along the streets of Tel Aviv.
